Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans love that this hotel is just a short drive from downtown Akron’s music venues, plus an easy highway trip up to Cleveland’s bigger arenas like Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. After the show, you’ll return to a quiet, suburban area—perfect for unwinding. The 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out times are standard but manageable for most schedules. While there’s no on-site shuttle, parking is free and Ubers are easy to find, even late.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to split a room and stretch their budget
• Solo travelers catching a big-name act in Akron or Cleveland
• Couples planning a low-key concert weekend
• Fans who prefer a quieter recovery spot after a loud night
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want to save for merch and tickets

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’ll be close to plenty of walkable dining options in Montrose. From fast food to sit-down spots, there’s something to grab before or after the show. Complimentary continental breakfast is available, which is helpful if you’re checking out late after a late-night event. No room service here, but with nearby 24-hour diners and delivery apps, you’re covered.

Nightlife Options

This isn’t a party hotel, but that’s part of its charm. For nightlife, head into Akron or Cleveland, which both offer plenty of bars and live music venues. Back at the hotel, you can count on a quiet evening to recharge. Bonus: several casual spots nearby for a pre-show drink or a late-night snack.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the hotel’s clean rooms and friendly staff. Many mention that it’s a great value for the price, especially for quick overnight stays. WiFi is reliable, and the location is praised for its easy access to both Akron and Cleveland attractions. It’s not fancy, but it gets the job done.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers note that the decor feels a bit dated, and amenities are basic. There’s no gym, and the breakfast is very simple. If you’re looking for luxury or lots of extras, this isn’t the place—but for a night’s rest post-concert, it works.

The Bottom Line

If you’re in town for a show and just need a clean, wallet-friendly place to crash, Econo Lodge Akron Copley Northwest is a solid pick.
